Scott Pagano’s video works have been described as “experimental graphic narrative short films, evolutionary in their spatial, textural and color exploration”. As filmmaker, motion designer, and spatial reconstructionist, he creates moving image content utilizing shards of architecture, dysfunction, and futurism. He has worked with a wide range of notable musicians including BT, Christopher Willits, Funkstorung, Joan Jeanrenaud, Kid606, the Kronos Quartet, Twerk, & Richard Devine.

Umfeld's extraordinary soundtrack was realized and designed by Jochem Paap who is the Rotterdam artist Speedy J. After 20 years Speedy J. has continuously been pushing the boundaries of electronic & experimental dance music. Blurring the lines between live performance and Digital Djing, he fuses subversive electronics and peak time Techno.

Resume of the piece:UMFELD

Jochem Paap & Scott Pagano's spatial experiments in hyperanimation led to their motion and music collaboration of Umfeld which provides a glimpse of what it might be like to not just see and hear what’s within the range of our senses, but also the frequencies outside those limits. It is both a final product and a process Pagano & Paap superimpose, displace, multiply, mirror, deform and add complex; audio synchronized three-dimensional computer generated imagery and sound towards their mix.
